What's New

The 1.8 update, while fixing an issue with multi-level keyboard layouts such as Japanese and Chinese, introduced issues for some users with simple layouts. This update reverts that change, in preparation for an update that aims to bring back the multi-level layout support in a better way.

We are sorry for the problems caused by the previous update, and thankful to those who reported it. Thanks!

If you are using a multi-level layout and want to help out testing the next version, please click the support link and let us know.

App Description

Constantly changing keyboard layout as you switch between applications? Let Keyboard Pilot help you focus on the actual tasks instead.

A common example is the non-English developer, having to use uncomfortable, complex and tiring key combinations for common symbols like [ ] { } in development tools.

Keyboard Pilot can increase your productivity drastically by:

• Making it much easier to enter the typical programming symbols.

• Making key shortcuts in applications such as developer tools or photo/video editors work as intended. Many of them are now assuming an English keyboard layout.

Keyboard Pilot makes this completely transparent by changing layouts automatically as you switch between applications. After setting up the pilot, you will never have to think about the layout again.
